The sheer pleasure of feeling the coolness of grass can be absolutely heavenly. <br /><br />Let me join you in thanking those gardeners. They truly do a commendable job by providing us the soul-cooling patches of green among the concrete jungle.<br /><br />Cyprus pictures are beautiful! Thank you for sharing the information and pics of the places that we may not find easily on travel websites. <br /><br />Keep writing, Arti! We are hungry for more:-)Ruchitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08695233356194486611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2958886527937390919.post-40975062526100247062016-09-29T09:35:45.854+03:002016-09-29T09:35:45.854+03:00You nailed it, Arti Jain!
